Posted By Jimmy No, but let them request them first!!

Posted By Stuart C I would say that before disclosing this information you should have the permission of the injured party.

Posted By John Murgatroyd Actually, it's both. But mainly the human rights act. You cannot dislose any medical details without, preferably, written permission. "the protection of personal data, not least medical data, is of fundamental importance to a person’s enjoyment of his or her right to respect for private and family life as guaranteed by Article 8 of the Convention. Respecting the confidentiality of health data is a vital principle in the legal systems of all the Contracting Parties to the Convention"

Posted By John Murgatroyd Ahh, insurers, a subject dear to my a**e. It doesn't MATTER whether or not you WERE liable. If the cost of fighting is higher than the "no admission of liability" settlement then they'll settle with no fight. Best rule ? Don't admit anything at all, ever. To anyone. Don't even say it was your fault in your prayers. Go through your "safety policy" with a solicitor and DON'T rely on your H&S consultant to get it right. They don't. Clauses like: "all floors to be kept free of tripping hazards, no wires, cables or hoses" are a compensation solicitors delight...especially if you cannot work with those requirements kept to. But carry-on, my companies safety policy (carefully drawn-up by their H&S consultants) has cost them £14500.00 so far, with more to be paid in the future.
